Heh, I'm more of a "lets get something working, then adjust as needed" type of person. At the moment only three organisations have asked to be added. Initially I'm thinking to have the list sorted by geography or timezone covered or something. Lets see how many entries there are first. May or may not need to get creative right at the very start. ;) > About 2, I dont think a community list would accept payments or other > kind of things....or yes, but list would not be changed cause of > that...so random again...or in the "worst" ( for me) situation a > different link for them With 2, again "let see how we go". While the list is short, it shouldn't be a problem (hopefully). If things start getting out of hand, we'll obviously need to come up with some practical ideas. Note - I'm pretty strongly "for" this general idea. Sure there are potential drawbacks if things go badly. But there are also potential benefits for people if it goes well. Let's try it out (aiming for the positives side) and see what happens. ;) + Justin -- GlusterFS - http://www.gluster.org An open source, distributed file system scaling to several petabytes, and handling thousands of clients.
